A Primer on Integral Equations of the First Kind
John D. Zahrt
CAD$81.95
This book is designed to offer applied mathematicians, physicists, chemists, engineers, geophysicists, and other scientists an elementary level explanation of integral equations of the first kind. It maintains a casual, conversational approach. The book emphasizes understanding, while deliberately avoiding special methods of highly limited application.
Reviews & endorsements
"The author achieves his primary goal of communicating basic understanding, rather than rigorous analysis or lengthy description of sophisticated numerical methods. The charm of this little book resides in the commentaries and insight it provides, particularly to those who are unfamiliar with the peculiarities of linear integral equations of the first kind.'' M. Z. Nashed (Newark, DE), Mathematical Reviews, Issue 93D
